[DEODEXED - 29/4/13][ROM] Xperia SL LT26ii Flashable 6.1.A.2.55 [Pre-rooted]

Hello everyone,
This is the stock 6.1.A.2.55 rom for XPERIA SL LT26II as a flash-able CWM zip extracted and built by me. Some features are :-
---> Pre-rooted with latest Superuser binaries and apk.
---> Busybox pre-installed
---> Removed the apks in /system/etc/product and /system/etc/customization. These are the apks that are removable by the user without root but some times re-appear after a reboot.
---> Deodexed
---> Rest everything is absolutely stock. No other modifications.
---> Fixed USB, superuser and WiFi problem.
As I don't have a Xperia SL LT26ii, please let me know if the rom works. This rom should even work on locked bootloader.
Download link - http://d-h.st/Jc4
Installation instructions :-
0. Download the zip and place it in the internal storage of your phone.
1. Enter CWM.
2. Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache. Then go to mounts and storage, format /system.
3. Select install zip from sd card ( the internal storage ).
4. Chose the zip and wait until installation is complete.
5. First boot may take some time.
6. Go to settings--->Apps--->All and force stop Superuser.
7. Enjoy and don't forget to press the thanks button.

Works on locked bootloader but I have trouble connecting to my WiFi (Stays stuck on 'Obtaining IP Address').
Don't know about Bravia Engine since I don't have time to test.
xLoud works perfectly.

Damn. Will fix everything asap, start building from base again.
As for the USB problem, just reboot twice and it should work. Also, has anyone tried flashing xperia sl rom on xperia s LT26i? If it works, then I can test before releasing the updated rom.:victory:

I´ll try it when it become deodexed. :good:

For now it passes all the setup and it will still notify that there is an new system update for 6.1.A.2.55 using PC Companion but don't update it, instead of updating it, flash your device with flashtools using your own stock 6.1.A.2.55 ftf by excluding system and wipe data, after doing this the the update will no longer required to update using PC Companion and you still have root access.
I have not fully tested the rom yet so in the meantime don't know if theres any bug, battery performance and others, will update here if everythings works fine.
Thanks for the ROM....

[PORT] [Acros S] [OFFICIAL PAC 4.2.2 v22.1]

This is a port of PAC 4.2.2 v22.1 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2177236
For further information you should go to that thread and see what the ROM is capable of.
All i have done is change the KERNEL with BPauls kernel from his CM10.1 Rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2262795
and also changed the build.prop and updater-script so that it would install on the Xperia Acro S.
All bugs present in the original ROM will most likely also be present now.
Credits go to funky0308, Shingers5 and Vertigo for the ROM and Bpaul for the kernel.
---------------------
Latest Relase (14/05/13) ****Small issue with mounting the normal storage wait till i fix that before installing this version if you downloaded it, if you have already go back to recovery and install my previous version then i will fix and you can install the new one.
Fixed External SD card not mounting
Fixed Rotation Issue
Initial Release (13/05/13)
Download the ROM from Download mirror
GAPPS from http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip
Install Instructions are:
1. Unlock bootloader.
2. Extract and Flash boot.img from hikari_PAC_JB_4.2.2-v22.1.1_Themed-v2.zip (fastboot flash boot boot.img)

Known Bugs
none as of 14/05/13

1)Hi The rotation is wrong, when you turn right the phone turng left and when you put head up the phone head off
2)Dont install the External SD Card (microsd)
You use the ACRO S kernel or S Kernel ?? this is very important

I used the Acro S kernel from BPaul so it should work i will take a look at it tonight might just be a lib file i missed.
When i was using root explorer it did say SDCARD0 and 1 so it might have something to do with that so i will see if the microSD card is being mounted properly, been meaning to buy one so will grab one and test.
Also i will look into the proximity sensor probably the same issue with rotation too.

OK my friend, surely any file is missed about Rotation and SDCARD01 (microsd)
Thanks a lot...and your ROM is GUAUUUUU only thats two bug

Did you wipe data, and cache and Dalvik cache because mine is very smooth, i use 3D launcher and camera loads alot quicker then stock. I dont want to change it much from the one im porting from. However if i do get around to building everything from source i will be sure to limit what is installed by default.

Have a question, If I come from BPaul ROM 4.2.2 if necesary Flash boot.img from hikari_PAC_JB_4.2.2-v22.1.1_Themed-v2.zip ?? or Can used the boot.img from BPAUL ??
Thanks

You could always message vertigo as he's the official PAC man and tell him what you've done and ask if you can post it in development. As long as it credits the correct people (which u already have) i wouldn't have thought that would be a problem?

Already gotten their permission never would steal someone else's hard work without there blessing. Will fix the issue with external card mounting and might do that then. Thanks

Have a questions in your Latest Relase (14/05/13) you was using PACman v22.0.1 - Themed v3 ???... or..... PACman v22.1.1 - Themed v2 ??
Because the error with External SD could be from V22.0.1 Version 3 (Old Nozomi) !!!

F.A.Q​
Q.there are many tools to deodex why use this?
A. With android 4.4 google changed something, now apps are also stored in system/priv-app, other tools available to deodex are only created to deodex file stored in system/app.
Q.Tool gives me some kind of java error at the start?
A.Install Java for your respective system e.g 32bit or 64bit. Also dont continue further if you get this message other wise you will get bootloop
Q.My phone is not detected by this tool?
A. install adb drivers..
Issues
1= On sling rom,when deodexed stock keyboard FC and weather widget also wont work(dont know why)

Hy @umair928 thanks for useful instructions but i am unable to deodexed sling v 2.1 using this method. It doesnt pull the required folders ,i even manually placed app,framework and priv-app folders in system but it doesnt deodexed nor create a flashable zip .This tool is for xperia z and i think it has to be edited a bit to work on our phone.
PS:If youve deodexed slim rom kindly mirror that for me i need deodexed rom thanks

May be you are doing something wrong, have you installed proper adb drivers and java. This method works perfect with stock or any custom firmware(I deodexed, 30b, 30c and sling rom) . I have also deodexed htc m8 stock rom with this...
Bro, connection is super sh... ty cant share deodexed rom...

Yes I've installed Java and Adb drivers , Adb is recognising my device . Apparently doing everything as per guide but don't know why it's not doing

That's because the framework is different. Changing lg framework may help you to get sms app working, but it may make other apps to FC

Dear Ahmed vai,
Thanks for the response. My phone is working well with Sling Rom as there are options of Selecting 2g/3G. Whn i select 2g only, the phone;s network signal is good and if i select 3g then the network bar up and downs severly...and no one reach me / i cant call to others. So, I am always select 2g. No way to find out the solution and In sling My front camera is not working.
Hope you are in Good Health. Take care Brother.

Well, sling is not a custom ROM. It's actually a cooked firmware. If you're searching for such a cooked firmware based on stock kk for E975, nothing so far.

Nice Work
Hey , you have been uploading many roms , but try and post screen shots and throw in some details.... :good:

Keeping it simple
Hi,
i did not upload screen shots since, most of the seekers know what that rom looks like. And all the work i have done are from the pure base. So posting it is duplication of data. I will try to upload the screenshot for the custom bit i did with the lenovo launcher soon.

Nubia ZTE Z5S Mini NX403A - Android 5.0.2 CM12

Hi
I have new Nubia ZTE Z5S Mini NX403A, there was hard to find information about upgrade and root so here it is, all in one thread!
When you buy Nubia ZTE Z5S Mini its came to you with Android 4.2.2.
When you plug in phone to computer by USB cable you can install USB drivers right from device. Make a backup of this drivers because after upgrade you will be not able to access it again.
There is a copy for you: USB drivers for ZTE Nubia Z5S Mini -> download
When the drivers will be installed turn on USB Debugging mode. (Settings->About Device, click a few times in Build Version to turn on Developers access. Now go to Settings->Developer options.)
First step is to root your device.
Root ZTE Nubia Z5S Mini – download
Download it and extract. Run íżbatROMdiyí┐╣Ąż▀¤ń.exe file.
Wait till your phone will be detected then choose option "05....." from the menu in CMD window.
If the installation will be completed then you will find two new icons Link2SD and SuperSU on your phone screen.
To install TWRP Custom Recovery you need to install Flashify app.
Download, extract and copy TWRP 2.8.6.1 Recovery into SD Card and also copy to SD Card file ui.zip with theme for TWRP with English language unless you know Chinese (more themes for TWRP here on XDA)
Install and run Flashify app. In app menu click on Choose File and select TWRP2.8.6.1-Recovery.img file from SD Card.
Confirm.
When your phone will reboot go to phone memory and inside TWRP catalog create new one called "theme" and put there ui.zip file.
Download an copy into SD Card these two files:
–Android 5.0.2 CM12 temasek-v9.4-nx403a.zip
–gapps-lp-20141212-signed.zip
NEW UPDATED ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62249397&postcount=4
Run phone in Recovery Mode. (Hold in the same time: Power button and Volume Up.)
From TWRP menu choose Wipe (Wipe your phone to factory settings before you will install new Rom)
After wipe choose from TWRP menu option Install.
Choose from SD Card temasek-v9.4-nx403a.zip file and confirm installation of new ROM.
Reboot your phone and enjoy your new system
If you want Google Play Store and other Google apps install gapps-lp-20141212-signed.zip file the sam way you installed ROM from TWRP Recovery.
You need root your phone again. Download and install SuperSU from Google Play
Go to Settings->Developer Options->Root Access and choose Apliactions and ADB
Run SuperSU, accept root instalation and choose CWM/TWRP option.
If you get "soft brick" of your phone you can recover it with this instruction.
Rom do not have any bugs or errors. Works fine.
Screenshots (my language is Polish but all other languages are supported I also got some apps already installed):

When I upload it here it was free, now file is deleted, so you don't need to register, because there is nothing at all to download there. At the top of page there is info: "File no longer exist" and under that there are some ads about create account for money. So before you say something is spam, read it carefully please.

Best Rom

I've seen it but it is for Nubia Z5s i think, because it's written nx503a. my device is nubia z5s mini which is nx403a.
